Elon Musk trolled on Earth Day with Mars Sucks billboard outside SpaceX headquarters
India Today
A Los Angeles creative agency Activista placed a billboard outside SpaceX’s California headquarters which reads “Mars Sucks.” It criticises Musk’s plans on colonising Mars and notes that the earth should be prioritised.
Space X and Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s plans to colonise Mars are not unknown to his followers. Back in 2016, Musk at a conference had noted that the planned InterplanetaryTransport System (ITS) will be made to carry at least 100 people to Mars per flight. A self-sustaining colony on Mars is the vision of SpaceX within the next 50 to 100 years. Until now, Starship test flights have witnessed explosions, but Musk says SpaceX plans to carry an orbital flight by July. Starships are the reusable spaceships being built by the company in South Texas. Earlier this month, Musk on Twitter wrote, “Make life multi-planetary! #Mars.” Not everyone seems to agree with Musk’s interplanetary plans and would rather focus on saving the earth. A Los Angeles creative agency Activista placed a billboard outside SpaceX’s California headquarters which reads “Mars Sucks.” “What doesn’t suck? Earth. But the way we treat it frankly, sucks,” the company explained on Twitter. “And then, you dream of Mars. A hellhole. A barren, desolate, wasteland you can’t set foot on fast enough. Great, we got to Mars. Now let’s prioritize earth.”More Related News
